The Effects of Mental Exhaustion.

Many diseases, especially those Of the ner-
vous system, are the products of daily re-
newed mental exhaustion. Business avoca.
tons involve a large amount of mental
wear and tear very prejuditial to physical
health, and the professions if arduously
pursued, are no less destructive to brain and
nerve tissue. 1t is one of the most i'm
portant attributes OF Hostetters Stomach
Bitters, that it compensates for this undue
loss of tissue, and that il imparts new energy
to the brain and nerves The rapidity with
which it renews weakened mental energy and
physical vitality is remarkable and shows
that its invigorating properties are of the
highest order. Besides increasing vital
stamina, and counteracting the effects of
mental exhaustion, this potential medicine
cures and prevents fever, ague, rheumatism
chronic dyspepsia and constipation, kidney
and uterine weakness and other complaints.
Physicians also commend it as medcated
stimulant and remedy.
